Nitecore Tiki Keychain Flashlight With Uv High Cri Lights, 300 Lumens Usb Rechargeable And Lumentac Charging Cable (Plastic), 300 Lumen

Does what it say and pretty convenient to keep it in poket

I received faulty product n i return back on 6 april n until now I don't get my refund

I purchased this to find any sneaky cat pee spots but the UV light doesnt detect *anything* in the bathroom, including in/around the toilet, the sink, and the litterbox.

This flashlight is marketed as being good for carrying on a keychain, and it works very well for that. Holding down the button gives you light as long as it's depressed, if you just need it for a few seconds, and it's simple enough to cycle through the brightness levels if you need it longer than that. I love the rechargeable battery; it's easy to recharge, and no more having to buy and change non-rechargeable batteries. Admittedly I don't have a lot of use for the auxiliary functions, but I don't mind them being included. The UV light is nifty to have I guess, and maybe I can use it for sterilizing surfaces or making fluorescent minerals or glow-in-the-dark stuff glow. The high-CRI light is surprisingly bright, so I guess I could use it when photographing things indoors to get better colors? And the blinking mode for catching attention I could definitely see having some use outside at night. All in all their addition doesn't detract from the overall simplicity of this flashlight, which is mainly what I'm looking for in a keychain carry device. Leave the complicated stuff to a bigger, dedicated flashlight.

As someone always suspicious of lumen claims on flashlights ("It can burn a hole through paper! It can light up a city street!"), I'm always ready for high-lumen LED's to let me down. But, as a tiny pocket flashlight for a quick need, this little torch coming in at around 2" is quite a gem, offering four different brightness levels, a flashing option for emergencies, and a UV light for counterfeit bills and crime scene investigations for the armchair detectives of the world. The lowest light setting is absolutely perfect for low-light reading in bed or other non-invasive needs to those around you; second level is equivalent to old incandescent flashlights for efficient light and battery use; the third level is perfect for average flashlight needs similar to most LED flashlights of today, and the highest beam can easily illuminate bright distances of at least 100-150 feet quite brightly, enough to scan an average suburban yard incredibly better than an average traditional incandescent. The battery holds up well, but the high beam used constantly will wear it down very quickly, usually 30 minutes or less; the quick flash when the rubber-like button is pressed in steadily will use the highest beam until released and can easily blind or stun anyone or anything hit in the eyes with it, and the compact design with keyloop offers quick draws out of a pocket for immediate needs. The drawback is that it still uses the archaic USB micro to recharge, but at least offers a nice tight water-resistant rubber seal flap to plug in when not in use; while i haven't ever used or dropped it in water, at least the damage will be minimal if none at all if retrieved quickly. It also takes time to get used to double clicking the light to turn on, versus a traditional one-click, but this actually prevents accidental pocket turn-ons when say a set of keys or other object clicks it, keeping it from turning on indefinitely and wearing the battery down without the user knowing it; a well-thought feature that overcomes that minor annoyance to activate. Charging does take about 2 hours roughly, but easily done during the day when not needed or overnight while sleeping; it offers a blue LED to indicate charging and turns off when complete. An absolute must-have for EDC (everyday carry), stupendously bright on high, and extremely handy for anyone to have when needed most; light as a feather and extremely compact--so much so I often forget it's even in my pocket to begin with!

The battery life is excellent; it's the best portable flashlight I've owned so far. The different brightness settings make it very practical.

works very well
